But in terms of itemizing, I am going linkens/eblade, is it worth going manta for illusion damage every time regardless? I have heard conflicting things. I do not particularly like ranged hero manta because of the cool down. Giving up 250 agi illusions kind of sucks but they often melt. Would linkens/eblade/Skadi be better? Or even something like linkens/eblade/lance/skadi ? Then satanic. Overall I just feel the manta isn't as effective as 5000 gold should be | ||

Overall I just feel the manta isn't as effective as 5000 gold should be 99% of the time manta after eblade is the play. Some situations BKB after eblade. Most of the time (except against AM, or when you need to time a BKB) you want skadi after Manta, Morph is one of the best manta heroes because all of his damage comes from Stats, so his illusions pretty much hit as hard as a normal hero. For split push purposes alone, manta illusions can kill a tower by themselves (and something to tank hits), so it forces the enemy back. | ||

when im @ 30 mins in game with linkens/eblade/manta, my illusions have 12-1300 hp and collapse to aoe almost instantly. i have a hard time practically sieging with them so tbh i generally save it for team fights to try to disjoint or just dps something. is this like a 6 slot kinda deal where you have linkens eblade manta skaadi satanic and ur illusions have 2k+ hp? or should i morph 30 strength for manta? cause it seems pretty useless sometimes tbh | ||

Manta is a resource that you need to find the optimal timing for. While it's great for dps hitting buildings or even pushing out a wave ur hero can't safely stay at, in fights you need to figure out what you need it to purge or when you can create the illusions to have an actual effect instead of just dying to AoE spam as you mentioned. You definitely aren't like FORCED to go manta every game, but it's simply very good most of the time. | ||

morph doesn't actively seek a 5v5. | ||

I have skipped linkens quite frequently like month or 2 ago but now with the decreased cost i dont see reason skipping it (unless u practically have 0 spells to block). Usually going RoA Treads yasha/HotD Linken/Eblade order game dependant, after that its Butter if im stomping, skadi otherwise, maybe finishing manta if i went yasha and need to remove silence. | ||

should i be taking his ulti at 6? the duration never seems to be justifiable at the point over a waveform/morph point but i am so rough with this guy. the dragon lance seems like such a good fit on him and perhaps even the buildup into pike is worth it? what are your thoughts on this? do you need some sort of lifesteal component before you start fighting/split pushing or no? (is that because you just rely on your ulti as an escape, or what?) sorry i just dont get this dude, and i want an excuse to use his ugly-ass immortal | ||

I like to get a force staff against riki and build it into dragon lance/hurricane pike after eblade but otherwise I don't think it's the "optimal" morph build. Linkens Eblade are your big pickup items you want, and you want to be getting them before 25 minutes. Having said that, rightclick no-eblade morphling is somewhat legitimate and if you prefer playing that way then go for it. Get ulti at 6 if you're about to use a TP back to base for HP, cos then you can jump straight back out without losing time by jumping to the clone. Otherwise I usually delay till needed. | ||
